Goats at the canal!

Well, here’s a fun little bit of news! On my way to a property recently, I was driving near the canal on the Pacheco/Pleasant Hill border and saw a huge herd of goats nibbling the brush! I’m talking a massive herd, as you can see in the pictures below. They are no longer there, and the grass is all nibbled down, but it was so interesting to see, I jumped out of my car to take a closer look. There was a mom and her two kids looking too; she said they come by often as the kids want to see them.

This was a hot summer day, so they were not doing much eating and many were huddled together for the limited shade. I  think this is a great way to mow down your weeds in an environmentally-friendly way.
